accustomed to such a life style despite their established names. A good deal of Romantic poetry centered on this general theme, whether it be isolation from nature, religion, or human-ity. Coleridge’s “Frost at Midnight” features a speaker who experiences a deep association with separation and deprivation from humanity and, especially, nature, with which he correlates his disconnect from religion. Lord Byron’s “Darkness”, evokes imagery of hopelessness, desertion, and utter desolation. When compared

The Evolution of Nature: Looking at the System of Nature in Aristoteles “Poetics” Aristoteles “Poetics” appears to be a straight forward piece about what defines good and bad poetry. Throughout the work, he explains the minuet features of tragedy, epics, and representation that have naturally come to be the best. He even goes to great lengths to list out each of the features of these representations and the ways they can be implemented. Behind this seemingly simple idea, however there is the great

Within her poetry, Dickinson glorifies the ways in which the natural world is a place to escape. The nature scenes that present themselves in Dickinson’s poems are mystical, enticing and even god-like. In “It sifts from Leaden Sieves,” Dickinson paints a beautiful winter scene.

The natural world has a unique power unequivocal to anything human to make one deeply contemplative, introspective, and observant of the universe around them.
